Here is my before and after





That shiny thing at the end of the brake switch is a magnet, the pedal was so far away it still had to be shimmed so the switch would work. A real jerry rig......I have the new booster and pedal mechanism installed, need to bench bleed MC and install. I just want to see if I need to tweak the pedal and push rod or not. Can you show me yours please?

Thanks

Thank you.
I am undecided as to whether I should grind the welds down or not. they aren't very tall, but its always a messy task. Have just a couple more random holes for weird seats or something and then on to the passenger side.

I was able to tackle the passenger side floorboard on Saturday. Second side was much faster than the first.
